Method

First

Kick things off by prepping your fish. Cut a couple of deep slashes into the flesh on each side, and rub the allspice powder in well. Season with salt and black pepper. Heat the oil in a frying pan, then cook the fish for 7-10 minutes on each side until golden and crisp.

Second

In a large saucepan, pour in the vinegar, and add the onion, peppers, chilli, thyme, spring onion, and good pinch of black pepper, salt and allspice powder. Turn the heat up, stick the lid on, and allow the vegetables to steam for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat, throw in the carrot ribbons, and let them soften in the heat of the vegetables for 5 minutes.

Third

Serve by putting some of the vegetables in a large bowl, and then place the fish on top. Cover the fish with more veg, and drizzle some of the cooking juices over it all. This is a sharing dish, so let your guest tuck into the firm white flesh of the fish and enjoy!
